SB 1524 California Senate · 2011-2012 Regular Session

Nursing.

Summary

Existing law, the Nursing Practice Act, provides for the licensure and regulation of the practice of nursing by the Board of Registered Nursing. Existing law authorizes a nurse practitioner and a certified nurse-midwife to furnish or order drugs or devices under specified circumstances subject to physician and surgeon supervision, including, among other instances, when a nurse practitioner or certified nurse-midwife has completed specified supervised experience of at least 6 months' duration and a course in pharmacology. This bill would delete the requirement for at least 6 months' duration of supervised experience. The bill would authorize a physician and surgeon to determine the extent of the supervision in connection with the furnishing or ordering of drugs and devices by a nurse practitioner or certified nurse-midwife.
